  • KINGDOMS
    • ANIMALIA
      • eukaryotes
      • multicellular
      • heterotropic nutrition
      • fertilised eggs that develop into ball of cells called blastula
      • usually able to move around
    • PLANTAE
      • Eukaryotes
      • multicellular
      • cells surrounded bycellulose cell wall
      • produce multicellular embryos from fertilised eggs
      • autotrophic- undergo photosynthesis
    • PROTOCTISTA- eukaryotes
      • mostly single-celled
      • show wide variety of forms
      • various plant-like or animal like features
      • mostly free-living
      • some autotrophic some heterotrophic
      • don't fit into any other kingdoms
    • FUNGI
      • eukaryotes
      • have mycelium, consisting of hyphae
      • walls made of chitin (polysaccharide)
      • cytoplasm that is multinucleate
      • mostly free-living and saprotrophic (feed on dead matter)
    • PROKARYOTAE (before nuclues)prokaryotes
      • no nucleus
      • loop of naked DNA
        • NOT arranged in linear chromosomes
      • no membrane-bound organelles
      • smallest ribosomes
      • respiration carried out on cell surface membrane
      • smaller cells
      • free-living or parasitic
